I really need a quick answer because my dash is totally apart right now. I didnt see a black ground wire on the stereo input. I want to splice a power cable from the negative and postive over to my sattelite radio unit. So what color does which?

 

black is (-)
red is (+).... there's a picture of a big (+) on the red battery terminal cover..

btw.... the grey wire at pin 3 or the light blue at pin 4 on the radio are (+)
and the brown wire at pin 7 is gnd (-)...

This is the information I needed! I really appreciate it man!

 

Well thanks man you shorted out my ____ing Eclipse AVN 2454

Edit: Sorry man...

 

Ok so I guess its not shorted out (at least I dont think). The stock Scion CD player doesnt work eiether. What fuse do I check for the CD player?

 

Squallheart knows his ish. If its shorted out it wouldnt be his fault. Plus you should know what wire is what when doing an install like this. Hope you get it figured out, but dont blame someone that tried to help you.

 

Nick do you know what fuse is used for the CD player?

 

I believe it is in the fuse box under the dash. Not sure the number tho.

 

ALWAYS know how it is wired BEFORE you try to re-wire ANYTHING...

Tomas I need to locate the fuse to see if it blew. Which one is used for the CD player?

 

CHECK THE FUSE PANEL.

 

Which one? Under the dash or under the hood?

 

i think under the dash, but it takes like 30 seconds to check both, so check it out.

 

Theres a lot of fuses there...should I just check em all?

 

On the back side of the fuse panel cover there is a diagram of what is what. Have you ever done this before?

 

yes Ive checked fuses before man but Theres a lot of them. Besides the obvious ones I have no clue what ECU-IG, STOP, AM1, PANEL, GAUGE, ACC, ACC SOCKET, IG2, MET IG are...

Im suprised no one has been able to answer this yet...

 

LOOK AT THE FUSE NAMES ON THE SCHEMATIC ABOVE...

RAD NO 1 (20A)
ACC (7.5A)

Sorry, didn't mean to yell.

Or look at page 240 of your owner's manual which tells you what every one of your fuses does and
shows exactly where they are located. RTFM...
